Very nice piece for the price. The only assembly required was screwing on the legs (which entailed turning the legs into the pre-drilled holes)-very simple. I was concerned that it may be too short but it is just the right height that my legs extend straight out from my chair. Very comfy. It also has a nice sized storage area large enough for 2-3 throws. I like that the storage lid is hinged and easily opens and closes with smooth operation. There is a slight chemical smell but not too strong an I’m sure it will dissipate over the next few days. I would buy this product again
